Well done, Graeme. Scanlon and Mendes such massive losses.
One correction though: Lisa writes for The Canadian Press, not AP. Very separate organizations, though they a reciprocal relationship in terms of sharing material.
One thing I always found amusing: In the journalism world CP is just "CP." As in, "great story CP filed today!" But in the U.S. parlance, it's "the AP."
Thanks for the mention in this piece Graeme. I can also be found here at My 2-pad (Sub)stack for mostly goalie talk (some in English, most in French).

Loved your comments about Scanlan and Mendes. Both excellent journalists as well as excellent people I think. Classy piece Graeme.

Terrible. A dumb brainfart on my part.
Not terrible at all. Brain farts happen to all writers -- only difference is no one has editors any more to catch them.
